Software Solutions Architect at SPEData
Has improved data reliability while requiring better pricing and localized support
The most valuable features of Arcserve OneXafe are improving persistent data, which I believe is very important. I use other products too, not only Arcserve OneXafe; we use TrueNAS as well. I have utilized Arcserve OneXafe's data deduplication feature. It helps my storage efficiency significantly. The product satisfaction with this product helps with storage efficiency. Regarding Arcserve OneXafe's immutable object storage helping against ransomware, the call was not clear, and I had difficulty listening to what was discussed. Arcserve OneXafe improves precision of data. I have used Arcserve OneXafe's continuous data protection. This is beneficial for operational continuity because we use it constantly. I have no objections to Arcserve OneXafe technology; I think that is very good.

Delivers consistent performance and enables advanced analytics across complex data environments
Teradata stands out as a solid platform for managing and analyzing large volumes of data. Its architecture allows information to be processed efficiently while maintaining stable performance, even in highly demanding environments. One of its most notable strengths is the ability to run complex queries at high speed, which is essential for organizations that require timely and reliable analytics. Teradata offers a well-integrated ecosystem that supports working with different types of data and enables scalability as organizational needs grow. Its focus on advanced analytics, integration with modern business intelligence tools, and the ability to operate both on-premise and in the cloud make it a versatile solution for data warehousing and large-scale processing. Teradata's stability, technological maturity, and the availability of strong documentation and best practices are noteworthy. I consider Teradata to be a tool with great potential for any organization looking to enhance its analytical capabilities, optimize data processing, and move toward more data-driven decision-making. Teradata stands out as a solid platform for managing a large volume of data in different projects. Its architecture allows information to be processed efficiently while maintaining stable performance, even in high-demanding environments. A well-integrated AI ecosystem that supports working with different types of data and enables scalability as organizational needs grow across different kinds of enterprises or organizations. The focus on advanced analytics integration with modern business intelligence tools is particularly valuable. Teradata combines a powerful parallel process and optimizing SQL engine with a highly scalable architecture allowing businesses to execute complex queries and analytics in real-time. It supports multi-cloud, hybrid, and on-premise environments, giving organizations flexibility to choose the setup that best aligns with their strategy. One of the biggest strengths is the ability to unify disparate data sources and support high concurrency, enabling different teams, such as analytics, operations, BI, and data science, to access consistent, trusted data across the enterprise.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The simplicity and the ability to perform small backups are the most effective features for data protection in Arcserve OneXafe."
"The simplicity and the ability to perform small backups are the most effective features for data protection in Arcserve OneXafe."
"The most valuable features of Arcserve OneXafe are improving persistent data, which I believe is very important, and I have utilized Arcserve OneXafe's data deduplication feature, which helps my storage efficiency significantly."
"Their extensive experience in data warehousing, the platform's performance, and their strong reputation in the market are the most valuable."
"The best features Teradata offers, in my experience, include fast performance during multi-parallel processing, very good scalability, support for linear scalability, and its suitability for handling large volumes of data; additionally, it facilitates data integration, where we integrate and analyze data from various sources, making it a powerful and high-quality reliable solution for the company."
"Teradata's most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"I found all parts --loading, transformation, processing & querying work in parallel, and end-to-end-- to be valuable."
"BTEQ is the best feature of Teradata, as it allows me to execute multiple queries such as select, insert, update, and delete in a single script, handle errors, automate running multiple SQL statements, and schedule ETL jobs, making it lightweight and scriptable, unlike SQL Assistant."
"Teradata has immensely helped our organization to fetch the data at a faster rate, which has saved us quite a lot of time."
"It has massive parallel processing ability to do large amounts of concurrent querying."
"The product is reliable."
 

Cons

"Arcserve OneXafe is not used in many cases in the market that we work in."
"The price is not the best; it is too high. It's not the best solution in terms of price, although the solution itself is good."
"The price is not the best; it is too high."
"​The initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code.​"
"I would like to see an improved Knowledge Base on the web."
"Teradata can improve the way it handles big data and unstructured data."
"Needs compatibility with more Big Data platforms."
"I've been using the same UI for 20 years in Teradata. It could use some updating. Adding more stability around Teradata Studio would be outstanding. Teradata Studio is a Java-based version of their tool. It's much better now, but it still has some room for improvement."
"The solution could improve by having a cloud version or a cloud component. We have to use other solutions, such as Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Snowflake for the cloud."
"The increasing volumes of data demand more and more performance."
"I choose 8 out of 10 for Teradata because there is always the scope for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution requires a license."
"It comes at a notably high cost for what it offers."
"The cost is substantial, totaling around $1.2 million, solely dedicated to upgrading the hardware."
"It is still a very expensive solution. While I very much like the pure technological supremacy of the software itself, I believe Teradata as a company needs to become more affordable. They are already losing the market to more flexible or cheaper competitors."
"I am using the free version of Teradata."
"The tool costs about 30,000 euros a month, while Azure Synapse SQL only costs 10,000."
"Teradata is currently making improvements in this area."
"The price of the solution could be reduced, it is expensive."
